they should make meds you don't have to taste and showers you don't have to stand up for and lights that turn off on their own and a bed that makes itself and laundry that is always clean and water that you don't have to get and food that's always ready and they should make a body that takes care of itself

something. about. the horror of being sent on an impossible (death) quest and obligations and hospitality politics. the trauma of not having a home, and then the trauma of being in a house that becomes actively hostile to you, one that would swallow you whole and spit out your bones if you step out of line. all of this is conditional, your existence continues to be something men want gone.

it's about going back as far as I can with the perseus narrative because there's always a version of a myth that exists behind the one that survives. the missing pieces are clearly defined, but the oldest recorded version of it isn't there! and there's probably something older before that!! but it's doomed to forever be an unfilled space, clearly defined by an outline of something that was there and continues to be there in it's absence.

and love. it's also about love. even when you had nothing, you had love.

on the opposite side of the spectrum, this is Not About Ovid Or Roman-Renaissance Reception, Depictions And Discourses On The Perseus Narrative.

edit: to add to the above, while it's not about Ovid, because I'm specifically trying to peel things back to the oldest version of this story, Ovid is fine. alterations on the Perseus myth that give more attention Medusa predate Ovid by several centuries. this comic is also not about those, either! there are many versions of this story from the ancient world. there is not one singular True or Better version, they're all saying something.

I wonder if humans and demons in Obey Me! might have different taste receptors and experience taste slightly differently. Not for all things, but for really random stuff, like how some people irl enjoy cilantro and others think it tastes like soap.

Lucifer trying to pridefully power through the dinner MC made for him and failing because he's already gone through five drinks trying to mask its taste, and MC is getting suspicious.

"What is this incredibly sour vegetable? I've never tasted anything so... acrid."

"You mean the sweet potato? Are you saying this sweet potato is what's making your lips pucker?"

"There's absolutely nothing sweet about this potato."

cody, quietly: i almost killed you. i thought i did.

obi-wan, who had very slowly, but has long since forgiven cody by this point: but you didn't.

cody: how can you even look at me?

obi-wan, cupping his face: because i see the man i love, not the soldier who was forced to obey.

cody: i think you'll find that he's the same man.

obi-wan: no. he isn't. he is the furthest thing from. and i think you know that too.

cody, just slumping against obi-wan: i hope so.

Joel's so funny in the life series

He's in a literal death game but he always cares so much about building nice things and they never last but he builds stuff again anyway

He risked making an enemy right away in 3rd life because he wanted dark oak for his house, he built a peaceful unthreatening house in last life the episode after turning red, he was a literal homemaker in the first few episodes of double life, and in secret life he really just wanted his fairground

When Grian said "Joel reaches a point where he just loses it and I think he got there a while ago" he was actually referring to that episode where he really really wanted to build a submarine but no one would let him

i still love the fact that xiao xingchen literally stabs xue yang but that wasn't the thing that broke their relationship. xue yang's reaction to being stabbed by xiao xingchen is basically "i see you are upset but we can definitely sort this out"

love that for him. such optimism. completely unearned but what's a little stabbing between friends eh

Hello Trigunblr, happy WooWoo Wednesday! I drew a poster for Tristamp for one of my class finals, really pleased with how it turned out! There's an animated version where the markings glow and fade away, I'll add it under the cut.

(Note for this version, I made it before I realized that I forgot to add Meryl and Vash's earrings, but I'm too lazy to fix it rn)

Here is the storyboard for part 3 of the Transformers Earthspark Season 1 finale to "The Touch" by Stan Bush!

The moment I saw this post, I just had to add in the song! (I would have reblogged the original post with the video, but alas, Tumblr.) Credit for this video goes to @oldswifty , I just edited the song in.

BIG EARTHSPARK SPOILERS!!

I cut the first minute or so out since there's no other audio, so be sure to check out the link above for the whole thing! I wasn't sure when the song would end, so I just let it run for the rest of the video.

the image is of a cycle involving 4 arrows, the start of the cycle says "i see a cool and/or relatable system post". the next part of the cycle reads "their banner says please read pinned". the next part in the cycle says "it says D.N.I endos" the final part of the cycle says "i block them".
